Chapter 313: Murder
"This ......" Wei'er frowned, and then retorted, "What do you think...... Is our current situation the company's plan? They want to start the eternal life project again, so they bring us in to kill each other again? Yes, it is possible, but ...... I remember that Shi Zhenzi needs the emotions of children to be stimulated, right? Pulling those of us who are at least adults to kill each other, it shouldn't be able to make Shi Zhenzi react, right? ”
"Well......" Xiao Yi said, "maybe...... It's because the technology has been updated, and now even if you don't need children, you can make Shi Zhenzi react, after all, it's been twelve years, and it's impossible to have no technological innovation at all, and the people in the company have been messing up during this time, right? Now how can there be a boss who doesn't fire people while watching employees fish, and you have to kick people after going to the toilet for a long time. ”
"Hmm...... It makes sense, and this statement makes sense. Wei'er nodded, but then she thought of something again, and asked rhetorically: "However, the middle-aged man who had gone crazy and died before, from what he said, it can also be known that he is a person related to the company, at least a person who knows about the immortality plan back then." But if this is the second time that company has started the Immortality Project, then why would they want to include their own people? And in the end, the man is still dead. ”
"This one......" Xiao Yi then replied: "Actually, it is not difficult to understand, maybe that Lao Deng was deliberately arranged by the company to stimulate us with his death." ”
"Death to stimulate us?" Wei'er was stunned, "You mean, this is intentional?" ”
"That's right," Xiao continued...... "When someone dies, the moral thread in people's hearts, which was originally shaped by society, will loosen or even break. When they realize that their lives are really threatened, it is normal for people to behave in any way, even crazy.
After all, it's better to live than to die for others, right? What's more, it's the death of a group of unfamiliar people, even if you really kill people, you won't have any psychological burden, and it's over if you say that you're really unfamiliar. ”
"I see...... Wei'er's expression sank slightly, "Is this deliberately arranged by the company?" Listening to you, there is indeed such a possibility. ”
Xiao also continued: "Moreover, that man looks like a social animal, and he is still so old, he is definitely not a beneficiary of the immortality plan, it is estimated that he is just a hard-working worker in that company, he is responsible for work, carrying the blame and being consumed, and the upper echelons are responsible for enjoying eternal life." Therefore, even if he is used to provoke us with death, it is reasonable, not to mention, we are not sure that he will die now, maybe his death is a play arranged by the company? ”
"............" Hearing Xiao Yi's words, Wei'er finally fell silent.
"Of course, I'm not necessarily right." Xiao Yi also said: "After all, whether it is your idea or mine, it is actually quite internal, in short, there are many loopholes. Moreover, there are more than these two possibilities, the real situation may be much more complicated than we think, so what I said is just a guess after all, and you don't have to take it too seriously, it is better to say that you take it seriously, and then find out that this is not the case, and point fingers at me...... It's really troublesome. ”
“…… Watch out for? ”
Xiao Yi persuaded again: "I think it's better not to have this kind of prejudice, after all, one day you will become an old man, and then you will know how uncomfortable it is to be prejudiced, and you don't want to taste the feeling of karma, right?" ”
Just when Xiao Yi was thinking this, he suddenly caught a glimpse of something.
“…… That's right, too. Xiao Yi nodded, "They are only middle-aged at most, so that means ...... Can't you call them Lao Deng, but you should call them Zhong Deng? ”
Xiao Yi suddenly saw that under the bed, there was a diary.
"Of course I know......," said Vale, "but whether it's the revenge of those children or the conspiracy of the gang in the company, someone is bound to die, so I think it's worth watching out for the rest of the people around you anyway...... They're the people in that company. ”
"Huh? That's ......"
Xiao Yi thought to himself, isn't the bedroom a place to sleep? It's not a place for talks...... Otherwise, next time Mimi quietly changes rooms to sleep, no one knows, so that she won't bother herself again.
“…… Oh. Xiao Yi said with a flat expression: "I thought you were going to say that you must beware of everyone, including you in front of me, but I still pointed the finger at those two old men...... Hiss~ Do you have any prejudice against the elderly? ”
"No...... You have a lot of point. However, Vale shook her head, "At least...... I don't have any reason to refute it, so I can't deny that what you say may be true. And...... Putting aside those conjectures, I have to admit that I am indeed a little radical, whether our current situation is the revenge of those children, or the conspiracy of that company, it is not right to hurt others, or even kill people. ”
Vile paused for a moment, then continued, "Especially Hart and Six, my opinion remains the same. ”
"Alas...... What a hassle. ”
"Uh......" Wei'er didn't know what to say for a moment, so she immediately added: "Anyway, that's all I want to say to you, no matter what, it's always right to be careful and be a little more wary of others...... Okay, it's not too early, it's time for me to leave, so I won't continue to bother you. ”
"No......" Wei'er shook her head a little helplessly, "I don't have a prejudice against the old man, I just raised a reasonable question based on the current situation, besides...... They're not that old, are they? ”
Then, Wei'er also left Xiao Yi's room, and Xiao Yi immediately sat down on the chair in the room again.
"And ......," Vile continued, "what if...... This is the company's second launch of the immortality plan, which makes it even more necessary to be wary of others. I don't know where the people in the company are hiding now, but the people in the company will definitely stop at nothing to make us kill each other. Just like they arranged for that middle-aged man to come in, they may even have arranged for other people to come in, with the aim of killing other people to arouse suspicion among us, so that we start killing people, so ...... We have to watch out for everyone around us, especially ......"
"That's right." Wei'er nodded, and continued: "If the situation we encounter now is the revenge of those children, then there must be people from the company among us, those companies are very clear about the current situation, and know that there must be someone who wants to take revenge on them, and under the threat of death, it is not surprising that they will do any crazy things, such as pulling everyone to die together or something, the middle-aged man who has gone crazy and committed suicide can prove the accuracy of my words to a certain extent." ”
"Hmm......" Xiao Yi nodded, "It's good if you know......"
"Oh...... Go slowly, I won't send it. ”
It seemed that she couldn't think of any reason to refute it, so she could only remain silent.
Xiao Yi immediately picked it up and opened it to take a look, and found that it was written in a very messy and very crooked and immature font.
It reads:
"Sure enough, we can't get out, forever...... Can't see Mom and Dad? ”
"Today...... Someone dies and doesn't know who did it, who among us did it? I don't know, I'm just scared, scared that the next one to be killed will be myself. ”
"Today, everyone is in a bad mood, after all, someone died...... Then, everyone started to quarrel over a little thing, and even started to do it, and I also understood that everyone was actually as afraid as I was. ”
"Today, everyone seems to have calmed down a bit, and after our discussion, we unanimously decided that we must find out who the murderer is, solve the murderer, and put an end to this frightening situation once and for all."
"We investigated the scene like a detective and then cross-examined everyone and confirmed the most important alibi, I believe! We're going to find the killer and we're going to win!" ”
……
"I haven't kept a diary for a while since then, after all...... I really don't have that kind of energy left...... Let's talk about the results first, we found the murderer, and then after the argument, we decided to throw her into the sea, and then ...... We failed, someone died, we found the wrong murderer, and everyone broke down and started hurting each other. ”
"Looks like they're going to break in, and I'm going to die soon......"
This is the end of the diary.
Xiao Yi: "......"
There is no time record in the diary, so I guess the person who wrote the diary did not know the time. However, according to the above content, it seems that one of those children left a diary twelve years ago, and that diary is now in Xiao Yi's hands.
But...... After all, after twelve years, it is a bit too coincidental that this diary can still come to Xiao Yi's hands.
"This ...... Did I find it after twelve years and just happened to be selected for this room? Still is...... Someone deliberately stayed here for me to discover? ”
Xiao couldn't confirm it, but there was one thing he could confirm, and that was the content of the rules paperwork.
"In three days, someone will die, and I'm ...... Must we find out who the killer is? Twelve years ago, something similar happened. ”
……
The next day, as soon as Xiao Yi came to the hall, he smelled a wonderful aroma of food.
"Oh, you're here, good morning."
Lin Huixue, who was pushing a small food cart covered with a white cloth, said hello to Xiao Yi.
It seems that she prepared the breakfast and brought it from the kitchen in a dining cart for everyone to enjoy.
In the hall, there were already four people, except for Xiao Yi, and Hart did not come.
"Alright, sit down, your breakfast is ready." Lin Huixue smiled softly.
"Thank you." Xiao Yi immediately sat down and began to savor his breakfast.
"Sister Xue~" At this time, the leaf who seemed to be unaccustomed to no one before, said coquettishly to Lin Huixue: "Is there anything to drink?" ”
I don't know what happened, but the relationship between the two of them grew by leaps and bounds overnight.
"Yes." Lin Huixue said softly: "Coffee or black tea, which one do you want?" ”
“…… Huh? Ye Zi said, "I won't drink any of them." ”
"......" Lin Huixue, who was originally gentle, suddenly frowned, "Why didn't you say earlier that you wouldn't drink?" Anyway, I'm only going to prepare these two drinks, so let's choose one quickly. ”
"Forget it." Ye Zi said, "I don't drink anymore." ”
"......" The corners of Lin Huixue's mouth twitched a little, but she quickly showed a gentle expression, "It's okay, then I'll go ...... again"
At this moment, Hart rushed into the hall in a hurry, and immediately shouted to everyone:
"Everyone! Now is no longer the time to eat leisurely!? ”
"Hart?" Lin Huixue asked, "Why did you come?" Where did you go before? And...... What do you mean by that? ”
"......" Hart breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Tempest...... It's already here, and, it's coming soon, hurry up and get ready for the onslaught! ”
“……!”
When everyone heard this, they were shocked, and only then did they realize that the sky outside was not generally gloomy, but they had not noticed it in the cabin before.
Once the storm comes, the sea will also become rough, and the ship sailing on the sea will inevitably suffer a huge impact.
So, everyone also began to prepare to deal with the impact of the storm, and Lin Huixue chose to push the small dining cart back to the kitchen first, temporarily separating from everyone.
They each found a room where everything was fixed to the floor, and entered it, grabbing something to cope with the shaking.
Ye Zi was the youngest alone, and Hart couldn't rest assured of her, so he asked Xiao Yi to stay with him and take care of her.
Xiao didn't care, so the three of them dealt with the storm in one room.
"Wait! Sister Xue hasn't come back yet...... "However, maybe it's because of staying with two men, Ye Zi suddenly became nervous, "She doesn't know that we are the safest here, I ...... I'm going to find her! ”
With that, Ye Zi had already opened the door and wanted to rush out, but Hart saw this and hurriedly rushed out, and the two came to the corridor of the cabin together.
"Wait! The storm is coming, and she may have found her own place to stay, so don't go! ”
That's when the storm came...... Surprisingly fast.
The hull of the ship suddenly became shaky! Hart and Leaf suddenly lost their footing and fell to the ground.
"Are you alright? Come here......" Xiao Yi grabbed the door frame and stretched out his hand to the two of them.
"Thank you...... What!? ”
At this moment, Hart suddenly found that the dining cart that was originally pushed by Lin Huixue was rushing towards them fiercely because of the shaking of the hull!
"Hold on!" Xiao Yi immediately leaned out of his upper body and grabbed Hart's hand, and then Hart grabbed Yezi's hand again.
Xiao Yiyi pulled the two into the room with all his strength, and the food truck roared past the door, almost hitting them.
Back in the room, several people were clutching on to what was going on.
Fortunately, the storm left sooner than expected, and the hull gradually returned to calm.
“…… Yes, I'm sorry. After confirming the safety, Ye Zi also lowered his head in shame and apologized to the two.
"It's okay...... Compared to this, I care more about Lin Huixue's situation. Hart said, "She pushed the food cart, right?" Could it be ...... Did something happen to her? ”
"I ...... I'm also a little worried, I want to go to her! Ye Zi also said.
At this moment, the ringtone of the mobile phone suddenly sounded on the leaf.
Ye Zi immediately picked up the phone, and after taking a look, she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Whew...... It seems that Sister Xue is fine, she sent me a message. ”
However, when Ye Zi unlocked to see what message Lin Huixue had sent her, she was stunned again.
“…… What's wrong? ”
Seeing this, Xiao Yi and Hart also immediately looked at the content on her mobile phone.
Lin Huixue sent such a message:
"Help me! They're coming for revenge! I don't want to die! Help me! ”
"......" Xiao Yi frowned suddenly.
Could it be ...... Did the murder happen?
